Description

I would recommend changing the /contrib/gis/util/ogrinspect.py default to use "Multi" geometry because this will eliminate ERROR when trying to import a data set that could contain both linestring and multilinestring for example.

The reason is that gdal cannot always guess the correct geometry type for example in a Shapefile.

# TODO: Autodetection of multigeometry types (see #7218).
